Art event #8 Escondido Arts Partnership Municipal Gallery
This past week I was able to go to the Escondido Municipal Gallery. Initially I wanted to stop by to check out the “Enlightened Lens 2011″ photography exhibition put on by palomar students, but while there i was able to check out a few more non-photographic galleries. First of all I was very impressed by some of the work by Palomar Students, it seems like they have a very strong photography department there because the exhibition has some FINE work. The gallery ranged from abstract composition to landscape photography. I was really impressed by the details in the work and was very motivated to once again pickup my camera, Some of the most attractive shots in my opinion were photographs of distant lands with subjects being candidly photographed of their daily life. I kind of kick myself in the butt everytime i see these kind of photographs because before i started traveling i didn’t invest in a good camera and missed out on some great opportunities, although it seems like the best thing from traveling is going places for me it definetly has to be the memories i bring back and since I’m a visual person what better than a good photograph…but now that’s changed a little bit i just have to get back on the road and commit myself to get some good images. another thing that interested me were the metal fusion photography samples on display, I had heard about it before but i never considered putting some of my work on that type of material, I will look into it in the future perhaps. I was also able to check out other art displayed by non-palomar students which included oil painting, acrylic, metal work and watercolor. It’s always inspiring to see the amazing work, like I said in the past, yes digital work is the way to go now and thats why I decided to look into graphic design but the reality is that I started drawing on a piece of paper, using crayons and colored pencils, that aspect of my art is something that I really want to go back to, I just have to find the time and just do it…
